We hope you are having a great summer. Our team decided to fulfill your warm working days with a light breeze of new version features.
These version 2.6 features satisfy the most popular requests from end-users and also offer the new possibilities for developers.
Let’s dive in details! In new 2.6 You are able to:
Our team continues to work hard on the component's performance optimization which has always been of great importance to our users and customers.
Therefore, in the light of a new 2.6 version of Flexmonster release, we are happy to inform you about the new significant feature - Compressor for JSON data source which will boost the performance of your project when loading the JSON data from MongoDB or other NoSQL Database into Flexmonster Pivot Table & Charts.
Today I’m going to tell you about the options to include Flexmonster JavaScript library in your project. Among possible ways, you can choose the one that suits you best. Well, let’s start.
We've made great progress since our last summer release. This time we deeply worked on memory that component uses in a browser. You often have this question "How much data Flexmonster component can handle?". Being a client-side tool, it mostly depends on browser memory. Thus, we have been working on optimizing the component’s memory usage, especially when dealing with large amounts of data.
Today we are ready to show the changes we’ve made and how you can affect your business using the latest 2.5 version of Pivot Table & Charts component.
Let’s see:
We had this one frequent request from our clients that we’ve decided to fulfill. It’s not a secret that the dark UI trend that has started in the 2016 and still follows us in the design world.
We are not going to convince you to go to the dark side (are we?) but we have a lot of clients, who prefer dark style in their applications. So, for those who use it or are going to use it, we’ve made the predefined Dark Theme that you can use right now by adding just one line of code.
Before you do it, we want to show the look & feel:
Usually, significant improvements happen in major releases. However, this time we would like to shed some light on the extraordinary improvement that was done by our developers during several minor releases this winter. We are talking about the tremendous reduction of browser’s memory consumption by our component.
This blog post tells about the most popular date- and time-related issues our clients reported while analyzing data from databases, CSV, or JSON. We are happy to suggest a new simple approach which helps to manage time zones effectively.
You know, we have this passion for what we do. For each new release, our developers work on new improvements to make the product stand up to new trends and perspectives.
Flexmonster pivot is designed to be friendly for developers and we try to enrich the product with all required features for this. And of course, we care about the user experience our end-users have with our Pivot table.
So, this release is all about styling: new handy user interface, the variety of built-in themes, new options to visualize data in the grid.
The feedback from our customers is a crucial source of improvements for Flexmonster team. We carefully collect the requests, analyze them and implement the most expected ones in our major releases.
In the 2.4 release, we decided to simplify the maintenance of CSS.
When working with different data sources and giving access to your data to connect with our Pivot Table, you definitely want to be sure that it’s secured. This concern is understandable, thus we've developed simple solutions to protect your data.
CSS gives us a lot of possibilities to change the look and feel of the component (read more in the Сustomizing appearance tutorial). But sometimes it is not enough. For example, what if we have a report with countries and want to make countries clickable (hyperlinks) and show additional details for each of them?
As you already may know, in addition to pivot grid and charts our component is also bundled with handy Toolbar. It provides easy access to the most used features: connecting to data, opening saved reports, switching between different chart types, applying number and conditional formatting, exporting to Excel, etc.
